An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration of 2.50 m/s2m/s2 on a level surface. Under these conditions, it travels 5.00 mm . Let’s designate the first 2.50 mm as phase 1 with a subscript of 1 for those quantities, and the second 2.50 mm as phase 2 with a subscript of 2. Now calculate the two travel times.
